attention from the very first page and keeps it.... A
heartbreaking look into a marriage that's lost its way." Chanelle Lawson is tired of the sex industry and is ready to hang up her G-string, but not before she snags Mr. Right--someone who is not only handsome but rich enough to cater to her every material desire. When she finally meets the ideal "catch" she soon suspects that he has a dark side and the man of her dreams might be her worst nightmare. After three years of marriage, Dayna Reynolds begins to feel the overwhelming urge to conceive a child. Getting pregnant, she believes will revitalize her failing marriage and justify her enormous weight gain. Conceiving a child, however, isn’t as easy as she’d thought. For one thing, her husband is hardly ever at home and when he is, sex certainly isn’t on the agenda. Feeling unattractive and unloved, a vulnerable Dayna easily succumbs to the advances of an enigmatic stranger. Reed Reynolds is striving for success by hobnobbing with members of an elite society. His new associates would be shocked to learn of his secret life—a life so sordid it jeopardizes his marriage, financial stability, and any chance of a successful career.

BoxClick to order via Amazon
Paperback: 304 pages Ambition, desperation, and redemption abound in this compelling debut novel about a woman forced to sink to the darkest depths of morality...and her quest to fight her way back. Victoria Carlton invested everything into her dream of becoming a singer--her hopes, her time, her life savings--only to fall victim to the harsh realities of the recording industry. Devastated, broke, and unemployed, Victoria is propelled into action when an eviction notice forces her to choose between committing herself--and her young son--to a world of homeless shelters or entering the seedy world of prostitution. Desperate, she puts her ethics aside and applies for a job at Pandora's Box, a downtown Philadelphia brothel that bills itself as a "massage salon." Victoria's lifestyle quickly improves, and the gratification of instant cash replaces her willingness to find a low-paying, legitimate occupation. One day an unlikely customer appears at Pandora's Box. Young, handsome, and well dressed, he is immediately drawn to Victoria. The two begin a love affair fraught with complications, leaving Victoria plagued by guilt and insecurities until a botched robbery and the murder of a coworker compel her to look beyond the fast money and reclaim her morals--and her life. A steamy tale of the power of money, love, and desperation, Pandora's Box is an enthralling first novel from talented literary newcomer Allison Hobbs. |
